Boot Camp anyone?

Ok, so I have allowed myself a little too much slack these last few weeks and I am motivated to get rid of my carb cravings.

Lil Diva posts a great plan http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/28139-the-basics-boot-camp/ that I want to implement immediately.

Anyone else in?

Great question. I couldnt even finish the 8th bottle of water I was drinking. Ugh I feel super bloated

I started early in the day and just kept on drinking throughout. I have a 600 ml water bottle and need to drink 6 to get close to a gallon. I made sure I had 3 done this morning before noon. This afternoon, I chugged down a few more throughout the day and then over the course of the evening got the last one in. I've been peeing like crazy. If you try to do this all at once to get it all in, there is no way. Our tummies can't do that. Just do what you can. Putting the effort in is the key.

I'm down to the last 15 oz...hopefully I will make it! :-/

Throughout the day when I wanted a Reese's peanut butter cup or some crackers I thought of you guys, I didn't want to mess up cause if you can do it I can do it....the support for me is great. THANK YOU, again.

Breakfast egg & 1oz cheese

Coffee w/ 20z milk & stevia

Lunch 4oz chicken & spinach

Snack almonds-100 cal. Pak

Dinner-4oz organic beef, salsa, 1/2 avocado

Water, dang I messed up, I have 70 oz in. I am still drinking but I can't get much more in. I was gonna down another 30 b4 bed, I am glad stomlin75 reminded me my "dinkie" can't handle all this water in a short amount of time. Tomorrow I will start earlier. Yea, I did not eat any popscycles, skinny cows, frozen yogart or any chocolate or crackers.
